Why do people get so triggered by the BMI chart?

Stop drinking and start lifting and you’ll be down to 175. That’s literally all you have to do.

BMI is bullshit. It gives men a higher then number and women a lower one then what’s is healthy. A 5 10 man is not overweight. A women with those dimensions is most likely overweight.

If you're under 5"1- and 160 lbs you're not a man and should require HRT immediately.

>Stop drinking
But I'm an alcohol
>Start lifting
I work construction. I'm strong fat, but fat non the less.

It's slightly flawed in that it doesn't take into account what makes up the weight. It could be all fat; it could be all muscle. There could be a genetic abnormality in the person. BMI should simply be an indicator of the general area of where you want to be, but it isn't a good indicator of good or bad health in itself.

That face when you're off the chart.

Can anyone with actual knowledge on this give me some advice?
I am 6 feet (1.84) and weigh 84 kg, which supposedly is ideal. However I am aiming for 90 kg in my muscle training.
Will I reduce my stamina and bone resistance with the added weight? Is it unhealthy? Or are these charts just pseudo-intellectual drivel?

NEW ORDER OF BARBARIANS HAS SOMETHING ABOUT IT, AT IT ALWAYS DO ABOUT STUFF

"INDUCING HEART ATTACKS AS A FORM OF ASSASSINATION
Another very interesting thing was heart attacks. He said, "There is now a way to simulate a real heart attack. It can be used as a means of assassination." Only a very skilled pathologist who knew exactly what to look for at an autopsy, could distinguish this from the real thing. I thought that was a very surprising and shocking thing to hear from this particular man at that particular time. This, and the business of the cancer cure, really still stand out sharply in my memory, because they were so shocking and, at that time, seemed to me out of character. He then went on to talk about nutrition and exercise sort of in the same framework. People would not have to .. people would have to eat right and exercise right to live as long as before. Most won't. This in the connection of nutrition, there was no specific statement that I can recall as to particular nutrients that would be either inadequate or in excess. In retrospect, I tend to think he meant high salt diets and high fat diets would predispose toward high blood pressure and premature arteriosclerotic heart disease. And that if people who were too dumb or too lazy to exercise as they should then their dietary .. their circulating fats go up and predispose to disease. And he said something about diet information - about proper diet - would be widely available, but most people, particularly stupid people, who had no right to continue living anyway, they would ignore the advice and just go on and eat what was convenient and tasted good.

Any one that is dedicated to lifting and isn’t retarded on their diet can go from healthy range to obese from muscle gain alone.

Because you only show the left half of it.

There were some other unpleasant things said about food. I just can't recall what they were. But I do remember of .. having reflections about wanting to plant a garden in the backyard to get around whatever these contaminated foods would be. I regret I don't remember the details .. the rest of this .. about nutrition and hazardous nutrition. With regard to Exercise. He went on to say that more people would be exercising more, especially running, because everybody can run. You don't need any special equipment or place. You can run wherever you are. As he put it. "people will be running all over the place." And in this vein, he pointed out how supply produces demand. And this was in reference to athletic clothing and equipment. As this would be made more widely available and glamorized, particularly as regards running shoes, this would stimulate people to develop an interest in running and .. as part of a whole sort of public propaganda campaign. People would be encouraged then to buy the attractive sports equipment and to get into exercise. Again .. well in connection with nutrition he also mentioned that public eating places would rapidly increase. That .. this had a connection with the family too. As more and more people eat out, eating at home would become less important. People would be less dependent on their kitchens at home. And then this also connected to convenience foods being made widely available - things like you could pop into the microwave. Whole meals would be available pre-fixed. And of course. we've now seen this ... and some pretty good ones. But this whole different approach to eating out and to .. previously prepared meals being eaten in the home was predicted at that time to be brought about - convenience foods. The convenience foods would be part of the hazards. Anybody who was lazy enough to want the convenience foods rather than fixing his own also had better be energetic enough to exercise.

Because if he was too lazy to exercise and too lazy to fix his own food, then he didn't deserve to live very long. This was all presented as sort of a moral judgement about people and what they should do with their energies. People who are smart, who would learn about nutrition, and who are disciplined enough to eat right and exercise right are better people - and the kind you want to live longer."

If BMI says you're healthy, then your scrawny ass needs to hit the gym.

>Has to run 20 feet
>Dies

Though to be fair, I think BMI is getting phased out for something more realistic. I'm 6'3" and have never been under 200 lbs, but wouldn't consider 220-240 to be obese

I'm a 26.
I've lost about 80 pounds in 10 months.

Because it says that people who work out are overweight. Don't tell me what my maximum weight is you fascist fucks.

have you ever considered that maybe this doesnt apply to people who have above average muscle mass? maybe this chart is for normal people. WOW

According to the bmi chart, most jacked football players are obese. Muscle weighs more than fat. Oh and people carry weight differently too. Some girls with potbellies are considered healthy weight according to this chart, yet some other girls with nice butts and flat stomachs are considered overweight according to the chart, which is silly because weight on the stomach is less healthy.

not fucking shit. it's a chart that loosely classifies people based on height and weight. it's targets towards a normal distribution of body types and classifications. that's it. doesnt mean you're fat or not fat. it's just to give most people a general sense of where they are at.

Well im at about 19 so im not salty

>tfw 175cm tall and weight 64kg and my dick measures 15cm

I'm the definition of average.

BMI does a poor job factoring in fitness and muscle mass. It goes purely off of quantitative factors (weight) and has no qualitative factors (muscle etc)

This is my favorite scene in star wars

>muffin top
>HURDUR NOT OBESE DURRRRR

you're right. i'm not defending fatties. I just recognize some flaws in the system.

I'm in the healthy zone with a BMI of 21. 6'1, 165 lbs. Not sure where to go from here...

Barely made it to healthyland

6'3" + 150 lbs, I feel like I could snap in half if I fell

I truly hope youre joking. Women don't like frail, sickly men. Only gay men like the twink body type.

wrong. the human body is not made to carry around all of that muscle. they are just as unhealthy as hams.

Because my fat insurance rep put me at a higher premium when I have 10% body fat.

It doesn't take fat percent into account. By that chart most male athletes are overweight.

Yes, only super straight MEN like to look at pics of powerful bulls.

i'm not a man lmao

BMI assumes a LBW of the bare minimum required to support the given weight which is why it's fucking shit

Better measurements are waist ratio and body fat percentage

If your doctor goes purely off BMI, you have a shitty doctor
Similarly if your doctor doesn't find out your BMI, you still have a shitty doctor

A good doctor will get your weight and height (and thus your BMI) but also measure your waist and ideally measure your body fat percentage

What's my ideal weight then? 185? (Based on the chart)

Because I’m overweight but have a 1st Class PFT in the Marines.

Sorry, I meant real athletes.

bmi is also useless for people who do endurance sport, they always would be underweight.

bmi is only somewhat useful for the average slob.

Of course

because BMI is a bad imprecise measurement that makes Top athletes "obese" by their standards. For people who are sedentary it can work well enough, but for those who do hit the gym a lot it just doesn't work. I'm "overweight" at 6'1" 190 and I work out 6 days a week. I can't even imagine being 140 at my height, I have a 32 inch waistline. I feel like I'd look like a concentration camp survivor. if I was "proper" weight for my height.

>Stop drinking
Alcohol is literally the reason I am growing a gut right now. And it's just vodka. Weed is so much better and it doesn't give you calories.
Also, this chart is bullshit. I am well within my "healthy" region but I know my fat percentage is getting to high. If you are skinny you can still get belly fat and charts like this don't magically make your gut healthy.

my ex bf was 5'10, 145 pounds and he looked like he had AIDS. too skinny.

BMI is shit.

You need to know what is mass consisted of,fat or muscle.

6 feet guy with 85kg can be ripped lean as fuck with low body fat,while same height with 40% body fat would indeed be fat fuck.

BMI is kike spin so white dumbshits are physically weak.

Because it doesn't take muscle into account, which weighs more than fat. People who are fit will be borderline overweight by this chart

Im 6 4 and 220, got a nice little gut
This says im healthy

EVERY SINGLE PERSON WHO COMPLAINS ABOUT BMI IS A CONFIRMED FATTY

Visible abs. I’m a 29. It’s not right.

Zdeno Chara is overweight according to the chart.

Is this for men or women?

I'm in the middle of the overweight category. Should start trimming down or I'll end up a fat fuck

Because the BMI chart means that as a Jow Forums guy at 215 lbs. and 6' tall, I get treated like the fat fucks who can't control themselves because of a retarded chart that fails to take anything other than lanklets into account.
Friend went in for his physical, doc said "Your BMI is way too high, you need to lose some weight". Friend pulls up shirt and flashes his abs at doc, and says "How much weight do I need to lose". Doc, unfazed, says "about 30 pounds so you can be considered healthy".
That's why anyone who isn't a scrawnyfag hate BMI.

That's a very gay story.

t.Lanket

Lol I'm literally not on that chart.

Haha

Tell it to the guy I train with whose story it is. I'm just the messenger.

The military at least has the sense to do waist/neck measurements. I knew a guy in the Marines (well he was a Navy Corpsman but he was attached to an infantry unit) built like a brick shithouse, just all barrel chested as fuck and strong, he had the best PFT in the platoon but every time they'd have to break out the tapes because he was "overweight", he had a fairly narrow waist (I think 34, maybe 36 inches) but a really thick neck and chest and all upper body. He'd have been kicked out if they'd just gone by BMI but I gotta say, who do you want fireman carrying you out of a battle when you're wounded, a scrawny lanklet or some guy built like a Gorilla?

Fuckin A user now start push-ups pull-ups sit-ups and body weight squats exercise will give you an outlet and change the chemicals in your body in a positive way trust science

Technically yes. all that extra weight is unhealthy for the joints. These big ass dudes have fucked up knees and hips just like the fatasses who weigh the same in fat instead of muscle.

And 6'4 225-250 shouldnt be considered overweight by any stretch of the imagination. I would say you have to be 300 to reach obesity at that height. Bmi causes bulimic behaviour and by and large is meant to promote barbie ideals about beauty bias. Bad doctors promote it insteas of bone density body type profiles that track other standards. 6'4" 150 is a toothpick waiting to be snapped in half by a knee in a fight when he gets lifted up like a benchpress bar because hes too weak to box with his frame.

BMI is bullshit. Just look at yourself naked in the mirror and you'll know if you're fat or not.

Realistically it doesnt account for multiple body types. I'm 6 feet and 180 but im close to being considered overweight. If I dropped to 170 like it wants I'd be a scrawny no muscle bitch so it makes no sense

This is very anti manlet.

Don't listen to the BMI jew.

Lazy fat fucks complain about BMI "because much athlete false positives"

Bitch. Athletes don't give a rats ass about BMI, they are too busy being fit. No one looks at some fitness junky rippling with muscles and somehow conflates them with a human beanbag impersonator.

It's always the beanbag that is trying to conflates themselves with the fit people.

Additionally, the higher one gets towards on BMI, the odds that they reached that through lean mass becomes increasingly unlikely. If you are on the far end of the chart you are waaay more likely to look like my-600l- life than a Clegane brother

You're technically a girl if you weight less than 90 kg.

This 100%.
People can't handle the truth, particularly npcs.

no they dont nigga dont talk out your ass, increased muscle mass supports joints and ligaments.

Fuck, kill them with fire!

Just eat mainly meat. you don't have to cut carbs completely but let meat be 50% of your dinner plate. it sounds like a meme but it isn't. its literally all you have to do, i promise you. pay attention to macro nutrients, get your calories from fat and protein, fill up on it. simple and even complex carbs being widley available are whats new since we got fat. just eat meat.

Your skinny af my guy.
